That highly aristocratic journal, the St. James Gazette, contained in a late number a detailed account of an exceedingly interesting performance on the part of the students of the University of Edinburgh, an account which we reproduce in another column. What morals the English papers have been drawing from these proceedings, which, we believe, have become customary from long usage and sanctioned by venerable tradition, we are uninformed. To Americans certainly this report will naturally suggest unamiable reflections and perhaps unavoidably will prompt odious comparisons. Beside such a scene as this, hazing, with all its attendant horrors, dwindles into insignificance...
...think our correspondent in another column is perhaps too vehement in his denunciations of Yale and what in general he terms "Yaleism." We are ready to believe that there are gentlemen at Yale, in spite of last Saturday's performance, and that the general sentiment of that college, when the facts and general conduct of their team in the Harvard game are fully and fairly explained, will not uphold such practices as were then indulged in.

We are sure that all will be repaid for any trouble they may take by finding in this column a news summary more extensive and more original than is possible in a weekly, and fresher than is possible in a fortnightly...
...communication in another column relative to the classification of Scientific School men seems to us to call for some decisive action on the part of the committee. We believe that the writer's arguments are good, and scarcely see on what grounds such students can be refused the rights which they earned during their four years' course, and which identify them with the regular classmen...
